Abstract
Abstract We compared the risk of peripheral venous catheter (PVC) bloodstream infection (BSI) to central line-associated BSI (CLABSI) at University of California San Diego Health. The rates of PVC-BSI and CLABSI were comparable outside of the intensive care unit setting, and the risk of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia was greater in PVC-BSI.
